I specialize in helping couples stimulate and rejuvenate their relationship. It is very natural for long-term relationships to become routine and the intimacy that was once shared starts to slow down and becomes non-existent as life takes over. The great news is that your relationship can be fun and intimate once again with some rejuvenation and stimulation. I developed the L.I.K.E.S. Coaching program to help couples enhance their Love and Intimacy with each other while learning the art of Kinks, Eroticism, and Seduction. I specialize in female sexuality to help the woman achieve or enhance her sexual and orgasmic experience.

A lot of the people I work with don’t come in because just one thing is wrong. It’s usually a mix of things that have been building over time. It might start with stress or anxiety constantly overthinking, feeling on edge, or trying to keep everything under control. Then it shows up in other areas. Maybe your mood drops and you’re dealing with depression or feeling disconnected from yourself. Maybe anger starts coming out more than you’d like, or you find yourself shutting down in relationships. For some, it’s deeper than that. Past trauma, grief, or moments you haven’t fully processed can continue to show up throughout your life.

At some point in our lives we will experience emotional and psychological distress. Most people will try to avoid or go through their distress without seeking help. People choose to do this because they are not sure how therapy will help them. I view psychotherapy as a collaborative, co-creative process between the client and therapist. If you or your family have been experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, or just going through difficult times, please allow me to support and guide you in the healing process. Together, we can face and overcome life's stressors! Evening hours are available!

I believe that all people have the potential to overcome whatever obstacles are in their life path, and I believe our relationship is a very important factor in helping you overcome those obstacles. So with that in mind, I will initially spend time just getting to know you and helping you feel comfortable and understood. You can expect a compassionate listener who will help you express issues that sometimes are uncomfortable to talk about. I will also help you establish goals for our work together that will be clear from the beginning of your treatment until the end.

From my own personal journey, I have a passion for working with those confronting uncertainties around their sense of identity and how they express themselves. These uncertainties may be from issues related to gender identity and sexuality, difficulties with body image, or feeling lost in the transitional stages of life. I deeply value understanding the unique background of every individual and how the intersectionality of various identities impacts the equally unique nature of everyone's lived experiences. I believe this understanding is the key to developing an effective approach to finding and living as our most authentic selves.

Men's Issues Therapists
Is therapy for men different than it is for women?
Therapeutic treatments and types are the same for men as they are for women, with the same protocols followed and the same strategies employed. Discussing one’s feelings and emotions is an integral part of most therapies, and some men find doing so more challenging. Therapists can help clients through the process; some specialize in treating men for this reason.

How do you encourage a man to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either himself or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.

How can men prepare for therapy?
Men can prepare for therapy by approaching the process with an open mind, being willing to talk about their challenges, and giving treatment the time to work. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. It can be useful for men who struggle to recall their emotional states to write down notes between sessions about their response to a given event or how they were feeling at a particular time.

What should men know about the process of therapy?
One of the most common reasons men don’t seek therapy is the notion that there’s something wrong with them if they do. Men should know that just because they’re seeking therapy doesn’t mean they’re mentally ill or damaged in some way. In the same way people work on their bodies through exercise or a craft through practice, therapy can be a way to improve the mental and emotional skills needed to be productive and effective partners, employees, and people in all realms of life.
